Special Diabetes Program for Indians Reauthorization Act of 2025

This bill would reauthorize and extend funding for the Special Diabetes Program for Indians (SDPI) by amending the Public Health Service Act. Specifically, it adds a new annual funding authorization of $160 million for each fiscal year from 2026 through 2030, with those funds remaining available until expended. The change is codified in Section 330C(c)(2) of the Public Health Service Act, adding a new subparagraph (H) to ensure multi-year support for SDPI. The act is titled the Special Diabetes Program for Indians Reauthorization Act of 2025 and was introduced in the House by Rep. Ruiz, with Rep. Obernolte and Rep. DeGette as co-sponsors. In practical terms, the bill secures continued federal funding for diabetes programs benefiting American Indian and Alaska Native communities for a five-year window, supporting prevention, treatment, and related health initiatives administered through the Indian Health Service and tribal health programs.
